Meeting Help Plan Future of Northeast Portland Parks Our children and grandchildren should be able to enjoy the same kind of high quality space and recreation opportunities that we do today. What can we do to provide those opportunities through our Portland park sys tem? In Northeast Portland, what changes can we make to enhance park secu rity to make them more attractive to families? What kinds of programs and facilities will best meet the needs of single-parent, low-income families? How do we improve access to the Willamette? With questions such as these in mind, Commissioner Mike Lindberg and planners from Portland Parks and Recreation will host a series of neigh borhood district meetings that focus on the future of Portland's park sys tem. The meetings for Northeast neighborhoods take place Wednesday, September 23, at the King facility, 4815 N.E. 7th, and Thursday, October 8, at the Central NE Neighbors office, 5540 N.E. Sandy. Both meetings begin at 7 p.m. Refreshments will be served. The meetings are a part of the Park Futures project, a master plan for improving Portland's parks and recreational facilities. A major goal of the project is to establish a clear direction for the Park Bureau and to address specific issues the Bureau will face in the next twenty years. This includes priorities and improvements to the system as a whole as well as to the parks and recreation facilities in individual neighborhoods. At the September 23 and October 8 meetings, residents will have the chance to address broad park issues and will be able to focus especially on identifying Northeast Portland concerns for inclusion in the master plan. Today's ideas will determine Portland's park system of tomorrow. These meetings will give the people of Northeast Portland an opportunity to have a say-so in that future.

The child who falls asleep with his bottle in his mouth and continues to suck every so often is especially vulnerable to tooth decay. This not only holds true for juices but milk also. When you do allow your children to have juices, stay away from those with high sugar content, and always if possible, give those drinks from a cup. Prolonged sucking from a bottle or falling asleep with a bottle in the mouth, providing intensive contact with sugar and acid, definitely damage _______________ the teeth.

This child's condition could have been easily prevented. After the appointment, I questioned his mother and discovered that she felt she had left him on the bottle too long. She was partially right. As parents, we want to do the best for our children. Sometimes we give them more than what they need. This patient's mother had done, out of love, what thousands of parents mistakenly do. Her error was to allow the child to suck bottles filled with fruit flavored juices with high sugar con tent or fresh juices with low acid content. Either of these juices, when in contact with teeth, over long periods of time, result in the breakdown of Linda Corbett, gardener for the City of Portland, will conduct a Port land Community College tour of the historic Peninsula Park Rose Garden ,r .‘ YOU ARE WELCOME TO WORSHIP AT lower molars. , It was necessary to perform surgery in order to relive the little guy s discomfort, to regain his oral health and to prevent any further damage to his adult teeth.

Photo courtesy of Guide Dogs for the Blind Lake Oswego Man Receives New Guide Dog Patrick ("Pat") Bloedorn will soon return to Lake Oswego with a new canine partner. Pat's former partner, "A u g ie," a highly-skilled German Shepherd Guide Dog, has been forced into early retirement due to health problems. As an active Guide Dog user, Pat needed to obtain a working replace ment for "A ugie." He returned to Guide Dogs for the Blind, Inc., in San Rafael, Calif., to find a new partner. Shortly after arriving at the Guide Dog center, Pat was introduced to "Fagan," a handsome German Shepherd, who will take over many of "A ugie's" responsibilities. During the center's specialized accelerated course for blind people receiving replacement Guide Dogs, Pat and "Fagan" have learned to develop teamwork skills. Although Pat will always have a special place in his heart for "Augie," he is optimistic that "Fagan" will adjust to Pat's busy life, which includes doing publicity work for the Portland Trailblazers. He also serves as the host of KBOO radio s show Sounds of Aware ness," sponsored by the Volunteer Braille Services. He is a member of that agency's board of directors. Graduation day for Pat and "Fagan" will take place this Saturday, September 12th, when a total of 24 blind people will receive new guides from the Guide Dog organization. After the ceremony Pat will head home to Lake Oswego to introduce his new dog to his wife Sharon and, of course, to "A ugie." Although it costs Guide Dogs for the Bind about $10,000 to develop, train and maintain just one Guide Dog blind person unit, there is never any charge to the blind for the center's services. The program is funded entirely by donations and receives no government support of any kind. For more information about the program, write or phone: Guide Dogs for the Blind, Inc., P.O.
